Default Almost drifting with t/c on... suppose to happen?

Well today I at a red light I gunned my IS350 from a complete stop onto a dry well maintained road and the car went sideways drifting a bit for quite a good distance... 0.o if it suppose to be able to do that when t/c is on...

Traction control will help control the loss of traction, but it wont limit it from happening always, especially with a car as powerful as the IS350.

i once got my awd 250 back end to step out in the rain with tc on. but i have ben driveing a awd car for years and know how to drift it. but with the limited power of the 250 i did not think the rear would step out. you need to hit the apex of the turn and go WOT to get the back end to step out in a awd stealth
